Chapter 593 - Self Defense
Wang Wei was silent, but it was an answer in Li Huowang's eyes.
“You used them to test me, right?” Li Huowang asked.
Wang Wei took a deep breath, and his expression became serious as he said, “Little Li, I was your doctor, so I'm familiar with you. I have a method that will allow you to make full use of your power! I can let you live like a king on both sides!”
Li Huowang shook his head and threw the thesis onto the bed. “I’m sorry, but no. I can’t do it.”
“Are you scared that I might take advantage of you? You're the one who gets to decide what to take from the other side! I can’t force you. Bring me a lifespan pill from there, and we'll continue talking”
Li Huowang shook his head once more and explained, “No, I'm saying that I’ve been cured, so I will never have those illusions again.”
“What did you say?” Wang Wei asked blankly when someone tackled him and pinned him to the ground. Wang Wei's hands were cuffed in the blink of an eye, and then he was forced to stand up. It was only then that he saw several scowling guards standing before him, along with a man wearing a white hospital robe. He recognized the latter, as he was none other than Li Huowang’s current doctor, Yi Donglai.
“Doctor Wang, you're sick. You need treatment,” Li Huowang said calmly.
Li Huowang had told Yi Donglai about his meeting with Wang Wei. Since Wang Wei had made use of him, why couldn't he do the same? There was no reason not to capture Wang Wei, as the latter could kick up a fuss, which would delay Li Huowang's discharge from the hospital.
Wang Wei struggled against the guards holding him down as he glared at Li Huowang. “It’s useless even if you lock me up! I'm just a pawn! Your potential is too big, and it cannot be kept a secret!”
The guards dragged Wang Wei outside, leaving Li Huowang and Yi Donglai alone in the room.
“Don't worry; his illness is quite severe, so he's not going to be able to bother you for a while."
“I’m worried about something else.”
“Is it your illness? Don’t worry; you've stabilized. Someone else has brought it up to you, but you did not relapse."
“Is that so? Do you really think that I’m fine? How would you explain Bei Feng's words, then? Why do I feel that you've instigated it?” Li Huowang asked Xuan Pin while holding his head made out of lotus root.
Xuan Pin was quiet for a while before responding, “It's because something happened, and we need your help.” NewW novels updates at novelhall.com
“Who could it be other than God Yu’er? Who are they, where did they come from, and what do they want?”
“I can’t tell you that, as they'll immediately learn of your existence the moment you learn of their existence. In addition, even your future self did not tell your present self.”
Li Huowang was confused; he had no idea what Ji Zai was talking about.
“You want me to help you snatch Yinyang Doulao's Heavenly Daos, but you haven’t told me how to do that. What do I need to do?”
“You can probably do it through Bei Feng. Find Bei Feng and the Doulao's Twisted Dao. Kill them and leave the rest to me,” said "Xuan Pin.” Moments later, his figure started to crumble like sand.
“What?! You could have told me that earlier! The Surveillance Bureau has just captured Bei Feng! They are never going to let me make contact with Bei Feng!”
Ji Zai ignored Li Huowang and simply disappeared into nothingness.
Frustrated, Li Huowang sprawled out on the bed. He closed his eyes and tried to sleep. He didn’t want to do anything, but he understood that he had to do it.
It was going to affect his future self and the future of the Liang Kingdom.
Regardless of what was to come, becoming even stronger would not hurt him at all.
Li Huowang knew that he could end up failing to save everyone, but he wanted to save his loved ones, at the very least.
“Ji Zai can’t be trusted. I need to think of a way myself...” Li Huowang muttered to himself.
Almost no one knew what happened on this fateful night, as everyone was in the common area for New Year's Eve. In other words, they had no idea what had transpired in the ward.
The higher-ups in the hospital were the only ones aware of what had transpired, and they ended up removing Li Huowang's restraints.
Li Huowang could move freely now!
